I can't access this link: https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1713691/FULLTEXT01.pdf
Can you double check please?

Hey, I can actually access this link fine, is it a regional access issue?

These two are the same link?

Hey, I've fixed up the duplicate link. I can access the Divaportal link fine; it might be a case where the paper restricts access by region, but I can't seem to pinpoint it. |

When I first opened it, the bio section took the entire screen and I thought that the link was entirely broken. Let's add the anchor so it scrolls to actual content on click.

Hi there.
I found the flaky tests page in the Pytest docs, and the studies/resources here were helpful, some of which I've not seen.
I wanted to return the favor and share some newer resources and studies that I've found useful while building my solutions.
